Default Re: Throwing money away by not moving up.

Thank you for your post. I will try not to throw away any more money.

For every Bicyclekick that moves up and kicks butt, there are 100 like you that think they are ahead of the curve. I wish you luck, and perhaps you will be the one in 100 that really does know there stuff.

FWIW, I just left Vegas today, and will be back in a month for the start of the WSOP in a month. Where will you be? Beating the $40-$80 games at the Belagio, or back at $3/$6?

The answer is ofcourse, it depends.
If one started poker as a HOBBY, and one rarely withdraws one's winnings because one doesn't really need the money, and one have a desire to learn and improve, sure, one have the potential to move up fast.
For all the people who meet the above criteria, the OP's question is still valid. I wonder how many low limit grinders on 2+2 don't really need the money they are making right now.

I am sick of 3/6 8 tabling posts. You people are idiots, you're first of all not learning anything by sitting on your ass, AND you're actually getting worse, since you totally forget how to make individual reads, since you're too busy clicking all over like a robot.

Couldn't agree more with this. Play just 1 or 2 tables and play higher stakes. More fun and more profitable.

Oh, and remember to pay your taxes on your winnings.

So I guess I am 1 of the idiots who is costing himself money by not moving up. I have been playing for about 1 year and have moved up slowly. I still have most of my bankroll intact. I still have so much to learn and I am being paid $80 per hour to learn playing 5/10 why should I move up?
